Sumedha SharmaTribune News ServiceGurugram, February 10
Gurugram manages to only treat 10 per cent of its average daily collection of Construction and Demolition (C and D) waste, leading to increasing heaps of untreated waste at collection points.
With a channelised collection mechanism in place around 3,000 metric tonnes of construction and demolition waste is being collected daily while only a maximum of 300 metric tonnes of waste is treated at the sole treatment plant in Basai.
The situation worsened with around nine lakh tonnes of legacy waste that has accumulated over the years.
Out to tackle the issue the MCG is planning yet another treatment plant which will reduce the collection and treatment deficit and help in dealing its biggest civic crisis of C and D waste disposal.
We have a proper collection mechanism in place where people are proactively calling for waste collection but the treatment speed is yet to match this efficiency. We are mulling on setting up another plant with an increased output which will smoothen the C and D waste management of the city. We will soon be issuing tenders, revealed a senior MCG official.
The MCG has also been purchasing recycled aggregates from its Basai plant and plans to start manufacturing its paver blocks, for use in pavements and bicycle tracks, from October 2020 and a new treatment the plant would provide more raw material.
Amidst the Covid crisis, Gurugram Municipal Corporation, led by commissioner Vinay Pratap Singh, went ahead dealing with its oldest
civic issueillegally disposed of construction and Demolition waste.
Hiring a professional agency the authority went on clearing citys empty plots, green belts and Aravali area of C and D waste which had been lying there since many such years. The Corporation managed to collect around 6 lakh metric tonnes of construction and demolition (C&D) waste from across the city the highest for not just for district till date but entire NCR. The sluggish pace of treatment however seems to be defeating what promises to be a perfect C and D disposal plan.
